Active English School was founded in 2000 by native English-speaking ESOL* teachers from Britain. Our aim has always been that each of our students should have the knowledge which enables them to gain at least one of the most widely accepted, internationally recognised, English language certificates as an aid to employment and/or further education at home or abroad.
*English for speakers of other languages
The University of Cambridge ESOL examinations require a high standard of English. Exam candidates need to be skilled in speaking, writing, listening, reading and use of English. Active English School's standards, therefore, are in line with those demanded by Cambridge and, as a result, we are proud to say that we have achieved a 100% pass rate at KET (Key English Test), PET (Preliminary English Test), FCE (First Certificate in English), CAE (Certificate in Advanced English) and CPE (Certificate of Proficiency in English).
Although we take students of any age, we know that the most effective way to achieve the high level of English language knowledge needed in today's world is for children to grow up with the language, use it in context and eventually to think in English. Our youngest students, therefore, start with us from the age of five or six.
'If it wasn't for the English course I did with you ten years ago, and the exam I passed, I wouldn't have got my job or been able to do an MBA in Edinburgh. I'm now finance manager of the Belgrade office of a well-known international pharmaceutical firm. Your school is unique, that's why I want my daughter to learn English with you.'
